Reuben Droughns

Nov 25, 2007 - Droughns is expected to replace the injured Bradon Jacobs on Sunday when the Giants face the Minnesota Vikings at Giants Stadium. Droughns has rushed for 176 yards and four touchdowns on 52 carries this season.

Mar 12, 2007 - Droughns, who was acquired by New York last week, said that the Giants are planning to replace the retired Tiki Barber with two running backs. "They said it's definitely going to be a 1-2 punch," Droughns said in a conference call on Monday, shortly after he passed a physical and officially joined the Giants, where he will pair up with Brandon Jacobs. "Brandon and me will be kind of a pound-it-out running style, so we'll try to wear down the defenses and work together."

Mar 9, 2007 - Droughns was traded Friday to the New York Giants, who need a feature running back following Tiki Barber's retirement. Droughns will likely compete with Brandon Jacobs for Barber's vacant spot. It's also possible the Giants could rotate them, using a similar two-back system to the one employed by Super Bowl champion Indianapolis.
